The Rangers snapped a four-game losing streak with a 3-1 win over the Blues, fueled by Dylan Garand’s strong performance and goals from Adam Fox, Oliver Bjorkstrand and Eeli Tolvanen. New York tightened up defensively, killed off repeated penalties and carried a 2-0 lead into the final minutes before St. Louis spoiled Garand’s shutout bid.

By the Numbers
  • Garand stopped 32 of 33 shots.
  • New York won 3-1 despite being outshot 33-31.
  • Fox has nine points in his last six games.
  • Tolvanen recorded his 100th career assist.
Yes, But

The Rangers’ penalty kill held firm, but their power play failed to score. A late defensive lapse also cost Garand a shutout after New York had built a three-goal lead.

What’s Next

New York hosts Philadelphia on Thursday before beginning a four-game West Coast road trip.

Bottom Line

Garand’s goaltending and timely scoring ended the skid, giving the Rangers a needed win—but their special teams and late-game focus remain areas to sharpen.
